Decathlon was the name given to the last ten mk2's made in green. The decathlon in sports has ten disiplines aslo, something I imagine you already know

Geoff,
As Stuart mentioned the Decathlons were ten Bronze MIDAS in British Racing Green
made to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of Midas production/life.
Cheers
Alberto

Hi All,
Below is a picture of Alberto's Decathlon, parked outside his home. The other pictures are when some of our Northern group went to visit him for afternoon tea. The ensemble included myself, Alberto (of course), George Sutherland and the famous Manifold car, which by the way things are going may never look the same again!

Actually I rent this house from Alan D at an exorbitant rate. Thats how he finances
his stable of 4 Midas.
I wish his comments were true !!!
